  • [38] I mentioned an essay book a while ago. Well, tomorrow our essay is due. We're supposed to write an extended definition of a concept. I wanted to write about Friendship, but since this is something I'm actually interested in, I want to do it justice. Like Emerson. Alas, I'm already out of [sufficient] time, and my writing doesn't simply flow doing these things. It's too much my nature to plan things out to the finest detail my mind can track before starting. -- So, about a half hour later, I've decided to write about Writing. Heh. While I was working on it, my mind went off on a tangent about rules and order. Wondering if there are any moral "standards" the world functions on, or if it's all just politics. Because all we (or I, at least) hear about are the negative things. And -that- much I know is politics. So I'll assume in the daily life of people, the standard exists. I'll summarize: The perfectionist nature I mentioned earlier wants me to try and maintain and comprehend all this political-like junk. All the stuff that I honestly don't even care about. And it's like I absorb all the negative connotations that these things not only come with, but the ones I attach to them out of distaste as well. And I'm afraid it affects my perspective on.. just everything. Instead of worrying about the crap that isn't related to me, I'd rather use that energy to focus on the positive things around me and adjusting my personality. Specifically, greatly reducing my cynical attitude and.. iunno. Growth as an artist.
